Turbidite sand stones de pos ited in rift set tings are cur rently among the main tar gets of hy dro car bon ex plo ra tion. How ever, the im pact of style of sed i men ta tion, cyclicity and diagenesis on res er voir qual ity of such sand stones is rel a tively poorly ex plored in the lit er a ture. The sedimentology, strati graphic ar chi tec ture, and diagenetic al ter ations of deep ma rine sand stones of the Miocene Nutaysh Mem ber of the Burqan For ma tion in the Midyan area (Saudi Ara bia) are de scribed based on num ber of mea sured sedimentologic sec tions, lithofacies iden ti fi ca tion in the field and lab o ra tory stud ies. Three lithofacies types are here iden ti fied in the mea sured sec tions. These are from bot tom to top: (1) “lithofacies A” con sist ing of mas sive to thickly-bed ded, coarse-to-very coarse-grained sand stone and con glom er ates; (2) “lithofacies B” con sist ing of well-bed ded, coarse-to-me dium-grained, well-sorted sand stone, and (3) “lithofacies C” con sist ing of thin-bed ded, fine to very fine-grained, cur rent-rip pled sand stone, bioturbated shaley siltstone and marl. The main diagenetic pro cesses in the sand stones in clude the for ma tion of grain-coat ing smectite and rhombic do lo mite. Small amounts of ce ments in clude the for ma tion of authigenic kaolinite and cal cite. The res er voir qual ity is an tic i pated to have been pre served un der the trans for ma tion of smectite to deep burial illite, which is be lieved to pre vent for ma tion of quartz ce ments.
